Texas will require electric vehicle Charging companies to include Tesla's North American Charging Standard (NACS) and the Combined Charging System (CCS) standard in order to qualify for a state program to electrify highways through federal funds. This comes after Ford, GM, and Rivian adopted NACS, leading to a domino effect of companies and states following suit. Tesla's charging standard is considered to be a better user experience, and its Supercharging network in the US is vast. Other states, such as California, are likely to follow Texas' lead.
